Abstract :
We will present the phase difference characteristics of urban areas in polarimetric SAR (PolSAR) images and an improved classification parameter for urban areas using the co-polarized phase difference (CPD) and cross-polarized phase difference (XPD). This synthesis CPD and XPD is the first step to obtain the effective phase difference of urban areas.
